How the ev charging cost calculator works

Divide miles by miles-per-kWh to get energy used, then multiply by the electricity price to get the charging cost.

Method and assumptions

Figur combines the distance, efficiency, time, and prices you enter using straightforward arithmetic. The calculation runs locally in your browser.

  • Efficiency and prices stay constant for the trip.
  • Traffic, weather, detours, idling, tolls, and vehicle wear are excluded unless the calculator asks for them.
  • Use your vehicle's real-world efficiency and local prices for the most useful estimate.
